Connemara Peninsula
Connemara means 'Inlets of the Sea,' this natural gem is a shore-side route from Galway in Ireland, passing through secret beaches and parched fields, coves, and seaside hamlets. The landscape changes dramatically as you move west of Spiddal, with the Gaeltacht area and its parched fields rolling into fissured bays.
The N59 passes through Connemara's starkly breathtaking interior, which is a kaleidoscope of rusty mountains, steep valleys, and shimmering black lakes. The Maumturk Mountains and the Twelve Bens mountain range with breathtaking peaks are at their core. They make for scenic walking, hiking and biking trails. Stone walls run the length of the land, and Car travel is the best way to see Connemara. You can stop wherever and go off the beaten track.
It is said you" taste the true beauty of Ireland" when you visit Connemara. Killary Harbor is one of the most jaw-dropping sights you'll ever see. It is on the western side of the Atlantic Ocean and the north side of Connemara. When you see it, you'll understand why Irish people love it so much.
